Which Comes First: Reliable Power Supply or the Egg?

For chicken farming, whatever the scale of the operation, reliable electrical power is crucial. To help maintain airflow, incubate eggs and keep the birds warm, reliable back-up power supply is essential. If the mains grid fails, and if it’s a long-term outage, the stock losses would be both tragic and financially disastrous.

That’s why one of Australia’s leading chicken and egg operations needed a reliable standby system. To ensure continuity of their power supply, they called AllightSykes for a high-quality FG Wilson generator set.

“It’s total peace of mind knowing that the reliability of the FG Wilson generator set is ready to kick-in if the grid fails. It’s very satisfying,” said the General Manager, Farm Operations. “To my mind, it’s almost like having an extra special type of business insurance. It’s great to know it’s there if the power goes out. Unless they make the grid 100% fail-safe, it’s vital to the survival of our chickens and our business too.”

If your business never stops, and the continuity of your electrical power supply is absolutely essential, then AllightSykes and FG Wilson are ready with a standby power solution.
